Good to see this message!

Another item not included in this list, is buildbots setup we need to
create the binaries. We are still lacking the Mac buildbot, and CentOS
buildbots for 32- and 64-bit Linux. The 64-bit Linux does have a
volunteer, however.

A few weeks ago, I created a little pre-release doc --

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Pre-release+4.1.2+Planning

that I thought we could use to flesh out what we need to do for 4.1.2.

In any case, I will look into the 2nd item here, a patch or library
replacement for our recent vulnerability. I would also might be able to
help with the CentOS5 32-bit buildbot, but not until the latter part of
May. :(

I'm not sure what this means.
